OVERVIE W Struthers Wells, a TEi line of products, has an unparalleled reputation and successful
history in designing and manufacturing heat recovery equipment for the extraction of
heat from high temperature process or flue gas systems worldwide.
WA STE HE AT BOILERS DESIGN PAR AMETERSStruthers Wells waste heat boilers can be designed to cool process gases with
temperatures above 2,600° F (1,400° C) and pressures above 3,000 psi
(210 kg/cm2), generating high quality steam to pressures higher than 2,100 psi
(150 kg/cm2) and for steam generation rates up to 500,000 lb/hr (230,000 kg/hr).
■ Fire Tube Boilers
■ Dual Compartment
■ Internal By-Pass
■ Water Tube Boilers
FLE XIBLE TUBESHEET DESIGN SOLUTIONStruthers Wells pioneered the flexible-supported-stayed-thin tubesheet design which
has been applied extensively under modern plant’s demanding conditions.
WASTE HEAT BOILERS, STEAM DRUMS AND SULFUR CONDENSERS
FEATURES ■ Thin tubesheet, typically 1 inch
(25 mm) thick, allows good cooling by the water on the rear face and as such, operates at low temperature
■ The tubes, which act as stays, are all at the same temperature, therefore, the tubesheet remains flat with no bending between tube holes
■ Flexible connection of tubesheet to shell provides for differential expansion between shell and tubes, acts as a flexible element and gives good fatigue resistance
■ Full thickness tube-to-tubesheet weld provides tubesheet integrity, eliminates the crevice on water side and ensures the stress in the weld is the same as that in the tubesheet
BENEFITS ■ Proven current and advanced
technology for improved operational reliability
■ Cost effective designs
■ Custom designs to fit needs of customer

APPLICATIONS FOR SULFURIC ACID AND SULFUR PL ANTSStruthers Wells’ extensive experience in the design of high pressure
fire tube boilers has increasingly been utilized in the cooling of
sulfurous gases in sulfuric acid and sulfur recovery plants. High
demand for sulfuric acid production for fertilizer plants and
desulfurization of refined oil products has resulted
in many large boilers being installed.
■ Economizers
■ Superheaters
■ Tail gas incinerators
■ Gas-gas exchangers
■ Sulfur condensers
Boilers have been supplied for pressures upto 40 bar on
sulfur recovery plants and 85 bar on sulfuric acid installations
following the trend towards higher steam pressures to
improve the energy efficiency of the plants.
STE AM DRUMS
S TE AM S EPAR ATIO NStruthers Wells waste heat boilers are typically supplied with an
overhead steam drum for water and steam circulation with a large
recirculation rate to ensure effective cooling. The steam drums are
equipped with two stage phase separation systems to provide high
purity steam which is frequently used to generate power through
steam turbines. Internal cyclone separators and demister pads are
used for steam-water separation. Water and steam quality are in
accordance with ABMA Standards. The drums fabricated to ASME
or other codes are matched to the Waste Heat Boiler requirements
and fitted with suitable instrumentation to ensure safe and smooth
operation.
TECHNOLOGYAs one of the original founders of the Tubular Exchanger
Manufacturers Association (TEMA) and a charter member of
Heat Transfer Research Institute (HTRI), Struthers Wells has
available the most current and advanced technology for the design
and manufacture of shell and tube heat exchangers. Additionally,
Struthers Wells has contributed to the development of numerous
standard mechanical, thermal, fluid, and vibration algorithms and
calculation methods that have been the basis for many current
modern computer programs used by many industry leaders.
For mechanical design analysis, Struthers Wells uses
sophisticated finite element analysis software to perform
detailed mechanical design.
